Edit Locked

Notting Cove is a web original series by Erase Alpha (Diana Mourão), about a Mundane Fantastic world.

The main story is romantic shoujo-ai/femslash, focusing on the small town of Notting Cove, where forest fairies live. The main character is Devin, a 20-something who works as a waitress and has irresistible urges to help people. One day she finds a fairy in the woods, Saga, a mountain fairy that seems to have run away from home. Eventually, they get romantically involved and Saga moves in with Devin.

This series currently includes a six chapter story, two one shots and an ongoing side story:

Fairies of Notting Cove: The original story, six chapters posted along a week, about the start of Devin and Saga's romance.

Pet Cat: A short fluff oneshot about Saga wanting to adopt a cat.

March Flowers: A oneshot about Devin and her past with Kennedy.

A Villain's Song: An ongoing story about what happened to Kennedy after she fled Notting Cove.

The most important characters are:

Devin: A 24 year-old forest fairy that works as a waitress. She has a tendency to snark and frown but is also unable to refuse helping people.

Saga: A somewhat mysterious 21-year old mountain fairy who Devin finds in the woods, hurt. She's sweet and quiet, but knows how to fight. She's obnoxiously curious. Has a cat named Connor.

Kennedy: Devin's ex-fiancee, a cold hearted thug who physically abused Devin while they were together.

This series provides examples of:

All There in the Manual: Subverted. There was an extra chapter with some info, but it was released alongside Chapter 6 of Fairies of Notting Cove. It was mostly meaningless but if you'd skip it, you'd miss the detail about The Cook and Flannan being married.
